CHAPTER –II Introduction

Conceptual framework

3

Page 4: Major project for maketing MBA student at DAVV indore

Before the liberalization of the Indian economy, only a few companies like

Kelvinator, Godrej, Alwyn, and Voltas were the major players in the consumer durables

market, accounting for no less than 90% of the market. Then, after the liberalization, foreign

players like LG, Sony, Samsung, Whirlpool, Daewoo, and Aiwa came into the picture.

Today, these players control the major share of the consumer durables market. Consumer

durables market is expected to grow at 10-15% in 2007-2008. It is growing very fast because

of rise in living standards, easy access to consumer finance, and wide range of choice, as

many foreign players are entering in the market with the increase in income levels, easy

availability of finance, increase in consumer awareness, and introduction of new models, the

demand for consumer durables has increased significantly. Products like washing machines,

air conditioners, microwave ovens, color televisions (CTVs) are no longer considered luxury

items. However, there are still very few players in categories like vacuum cleaners, and

dishwashers Consumer durables sector is characterized by the emergence of MNCs, exchange

offers, discounts, and intense competition. The market share of MNCs in consumer durables

sector is 65%. MNC's major target is the growing middle class of India. MNCs offer superior

technology to the Consumers whereas the Indian companies compete on the basis of firm

grasp of the local market, their well-acknowledged brands, and hold over wide distribution

network. However, the penetration level of the consumer durables is still low in India.

LG Electronics India Pvt. Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of LG Electronics, South

Korea was established in January 1997 after clearance from the Foreign Investment

Promotion Board (FIPB). LG set up a state-of-the art manufacturing facility at Greater Nodal,

near Delhi, in 1998, with an investment of Rs 500 Crores.

LG corporate office is located at Plot no.51, Udyog Vihar, Kasna Road, Greater

Noida, and India. This facility manufactured Color Televisions, Washing Machines, Air-

Conditioners and Microwave Ovens.

'Company is setting up a chain of exclusive premium showrooms. LG plans to launch 60

premium Brand Shoppes by the end of the first quarter of this year. At present, LG has a total

of 83 LG stores across the country, of which 45 are shops and 38 are exclusive stores. Brand

shops will be placed in the premium segment and the target audience will comprise buyers

interested in premium and high end products.

LG Brand Shoppe goes beyond the concept of a normal exclusive store by having a more

interactive environment and additional lifestyle orientation on display so that the customer

can actually experience the LG products in his or her own home settings.

Factors affecting decision

Every study has certain limitations. In our study, also there were certain limitations,

which I could not able to solve.

Local and efficient manufacturing to reduce cost - To overcome High import duties,

LG manufactures PC monitors and Refrigerators in India at its manufacturing facility

at Noida, Delhi.

The research was conducted in a small area.

Our research work period witness the biggest ups and downs in product sale of

different brands, which affected the perception of the custom

Time factor was also important for us. We had limited time for the research, for

which a full-fledged report was insufficient for me.

The customer filled the questionnaire mostly in careless manner, so it was difficult to

make them hold for time.

We had only found the upper-middle class family to fill up the Questionnaire, but

generally, an average middle class family was required for the study

CHAPTER –V

Conclusion

32

Page 33: Major project for maketing MBA student at DAVV indore

Conclusion

The study reflects that the use products of LG brand undeniably has increased over

the years in India. Future holds lot of promise for such brand across wider range of markets.

LG brand has ceased to be major differentiator at least in the metros, with almost all

companies offering similar brand. As a result now marketers have to find out some

innovative ways products of LG brand to differentiate from competitors. Currently Bye one

get one free offers are very effective to attract the consumers towards the products.

We have noted that these kind of promotional scheme tools are useful for short term

increase in sales and to induce first trial. These types of products scheme should be consistent

and changed from time to time depending upon season and competitor’s schemes.

With the Increasing number of supermarket, the branded packaged goods work as silent sales

person. So in such stores, LG products play a more effective role in stimulating consumers’

demands.

One of the very important facts we came to know from this project is that sale of LG

products which contain large quantity and having stagnating because consumer prefer to buy

product of LG brand. It had low cost or say price, and last but important factor i.e. mentality

to purchase just to try first.
